Vintage original 27x41 in. US one-sheet poster from the classic 1960's biographical crime drama, IN COLD BLOOD, released in 1967 by Columbia Pictures and directed by Richard Brooks. Based upon the famous book by Truman Capote, after a botched robbery results in the brutal murder of a rural family, two drifters elude police, in the end coming to terms with their own mortality and the repercussions of their vile atrocity. Folded as originally issued, this vintage original one-sheet poster is unrestored in very fine- condition with an unobtrusive 1 in. diagonal tear in the top right corner of the image area with a corresponding tear in the bottom right corner of the image area; one pinhole in or near each corner with one in the center of the side borders; and light creases on corners. The family photos seen in the rooms of the house are real photos of the Clutter family members. The "Jenson" and "Narrator" characters are based on Truman Capote. Capote went to Kansas soon after the murders to cover the manhunt and to interview those who knew the Clutter family. After the apprehension and conviction of killers Perry Smith (Robert Blake) and Dick Hickock (Scott Wilson), Capote became a major part of the killers' lives while they were on death row, forming a particularly close bond with Smith. Smith gave most of his belongings - drawings and books - to Capote. Capote was present at the executions and witnessed the carrying-out of Hickock's sentence, but couldn't bear to watch Smith die and left the room before he was brought in.
